It is the third largest church in the world ! Do not miss to go at the Cathedral Terrace: You will enjoy a spectacular city view and a close up look at the central spires with the Madonnina , one symbol of Milan.

Just at the end of Galleria Vittorio Emanuele, You will see the Scala Opera House. For Milano the opera house is strongly related with the Giuseppe Verdi Operas and with the Maria Callas legendary performances. If You are an opera fan, we suggest to visit also the museum and ( why not ? ) check for last minutes discounted tickets.

Our city has a beautiful castle; it is very nice to walk inside it !
For Michelangelo lovers , here you can see the fantastic Pietà Rondanini ; It is housed in the Museum of Ancient Art.
Nice to see also the Sala delle Asse, painted by Leonardo da Vinci.

This is really a wonderful experience ! Have a nice walk up on Corso Magenta ( nice street for local shopping ) and find this special church. Maybe the nicest church in town ( for sure our favorite ! )

It’s all about a prospective joke ! Thanks to Bramante it is possible to see this Renaissance masterpiece ; very close to the hotel and the Cathedral ; it requires just a quick visit and 10 minutes of your time to discover this hidden treasure of Milan.

Really 1 minute walking far from the Hotel. It does worth the visit for famous painting by Leonardo ( Portrait of a Musician), Caravaggio ( his fantastic Basket of Fruit ), Botticelli ( Madonna del Padiglione ) and Raffaello ( Cartoon of the School of Athens ) among the others.

In piazza del Duomo, this museum has an unique collection of modern Italian artists like Boccioni, Carrà, Morandi, De Chirico. Incredible is the Fontana room with a marvelous view to Piazza del Duomo ( strongly recommended ). A little tip : each day 1 hour before closing the entrance is free. On Tuesday free entrance from 2pm

From Canova to Boccioni this museum tells us a lot how Italian people were living in the XIX century ; You can understand also how Milano has changed in the last 150 years . This is a free entrance museum and a visit is also recommended for the beautiful buildings especially the old bank with the modern collection.

The main museum of Milan.
Some painting are really incredible and a quick visit is quite a must.
Raffaello, Pier Della Francesca, Mantegna Bramante Tintoretto … a piece of the best Italian art history is here !

The gallery of modern art has been recently renovated. In a XIX century Villas ( with a very nice garden ) you will find a collection of painting by Gaugin, Van Gogh, Matisse, Picasso, Cézanne … but also the part with XIX century collection is very nice as well as the entire building. A little tip : each day 1 hour before closing the entrance is free. On Tuesday free entrance from 2pm

This villa is a little bit outside the normal touristic itinerary but it is worth visiting. A typical 20th century Villa in a very peaceful area. After the shopping at the Golden Quadrilateral , it could be a nice place to relax a little bit.

One of our favorite restaurant ; in an historic building of the 1400, it has a lovely courtyard where you can eat during the nice season.
Charming, romantic with delicious food : this is an hidden gem just few steps from the hotel and away from the Duomo crowds.

Very good food from this traditional restaurant.
They do not speak English very well but they are great in cooking a wonderful risotto or Milanese steak.
An authentic trattoria with authentic Milanese food to complete your Milan experience few steps from the Hotel

Relatively new , this is a good and fancy trattoria still with reasonable price.
Much better for dinner than for lunch but please remember to reserve in advance ( or contact us , we’ll do this for you ).
“with the scent of the sea in the heart” is the restaurant Motto ; simple genuine and quality food , big and comfortable tables: the restaurant has the ability to make your dinner nice and relaxed.
A must for lovers of mussels.

This restaurant is in one of the most beautiful medieval Piazza in Milano.
During the nice season it is possible to eat in a dehors that give you the possibility to better view the beauty of the old square.
The food is correct , the service professional, the place is less than 3 minutes walking from the Hotel.

If you are tired and you want something to eat simple and good, this family restaurant with pizzeria is a good choice ; the tables are quite little and one near the other but the pizza is a good one.
Again just few steps from the Hotel.

One of the most beautiful districts of Milan because it still retains the flavor of the old town with restaurants, art galleries and nightlife. Here you can breathe a "bohemian air". Still in walking distance from the hotel.

Peck since 1883 is considered to be “ the temple of Italian gastronomy”. Looking from outside you can notice the major attention they drop to the showcase. Inside it is even better; I consider it like a gastronomy museum. It’s just amazing. Taste their cheeses and sliced meat , special olives and oil veggies to take home with you.

Galli is a must try if you are a sweet lover. This historic house founded in 1911 will take you back in time with their special recipes. For us the King : Marron glace ! Only fresh made. It is a piece of heaven.

Noberasco is also historic shop. Since 1908 they produce a complete selection of dried fruits. From italian hazelnuts to tropical flavours. A great idea is to take a little package with you when having a train trip ! this little snack will be sparkling. It is also a good idea for a fancy gift !

Ladurèe; Colorful, elegant and sparkling shop with a taste of France. You can’t miss getting your girlfriend one of their macaroons.- She will fall in love immediately! Try at least 5 of their flavours. Chocolate and roses are our favourites. Nice also good perfumed candles and nice shopping bags !

Ciacco Gelateria - Chocolate and lemon, cream and green tea. Miracle cream flavour is just amazing, new and refreshing! This shop creates special flavours, made really with genuine and selected products. Seasonal ones! The coffee is also very good !

Cafeteria Passerini offers us the fantastic creations of Louis Biasetto and its famous cake Setteveli. This beautiful bar snack has just been renovated to a relaxing environment, ideal to enjoy their delicacies such as traditional Yarrow, Sacher, tarte au citron meringuée and much more. Enjoy a nice coffee break with one of the delicious cakes.

Luini since 1888 produces one of the most delicious snacks ever made. Our favourite is the traditional panzerotto with mozzarella and tomato flavour; indescribable. Perfect for a middle afternoon pause after shopping. Don’t be scared by the size of the queue. It is really worth it !
